Section XXIV:

It is the winter. Trescott’s wife is crying, consumed by a headache and grieving her failure of a tea party. Trescott has no patients, not income, and now his wife has no friends. The novel ends dismally.

Crane created Henry, a outgoing, flamboyant character. Henry end the novel as a disfigured burden that bankrupts and ostracizes the Trescott family in their determination to save Henry as a human.
